Re: After 3 years, and becoming addicted (including addiction symtoms) I quit. - July 20th 2009, 11:58 AM

Hey there,

I’m so glad that you’ve managed to decide to stop self-harming. You should be very proud of yourself for making that decision as it really is not an easy decision to make – it does take a lot of courage.

I’m sorry that you have been experience addiction withdrawal symptoms, they can be very hard to deal with. I’m also sorry that your boyfriend reacted that way and yelled at you, however, I’m sort of glad that he did too, if it helped you to realise that you don’t need self harm and that you can overcome this addiction and beat it. I’m proud of you for not cutting yourself that night.

It’s great that you managed to talk to your boyfriend and his father about addictive behaviours – it’s good to be able to talk to people about these issues and that is something else that you should be proud of yourself for doing. That also seemed to really help you and so I’d encourage you to try and talk to your boyfriend or his father again if you’re ever struggling.

Well done on your six days total –that is such a great achievement. Give yourself a pat on the back everyday – a treat, recognise your achievements and be proud of yourself. You’re strong. I’m glad that you have your boyfriend and his father to support you. You also have us, too. We’re always going to be here for you if you need any help or support.

Good luck and keep strong.
